Ranger

The Ranger is the fastest class and Squadbreak’s best single-target damage dealer. Deadeye boosts critical hits, Combat Roll comes back every few seconds and can’t be hit, and Rapid Fire reloads instantly and speeds up your shooting.

2 · Combat Roll4s cooldown

How to play the Ranger

Keep moving and keep your distance. You have the least health of any class, but the most speed, and Combat Roll makes you untouchable for a moment every 4 seconds.

Line up Deadeye with your biggest shots: semi-auto rifles and hand cannons hit hard on every click, and Deadeye adds both crit chance and crit damage.

Rapid Fire refills your magazine on the spot. Combined with switching to your sidearm, you almost never have to wait on a reload.
